Somewhere on one of the English-speaking South Sea Islands, at an indefinite present time, with no mention of the fact that it is the middle of World War II, Marge (Gale Sondergaard) is the proprietress of a nightclub/restaurant/gambling hall/brothel called "Isle of Forgotten Sins". In the morning, she knocks on the doors of the individual rooms of her sleeping hostesses, Olga (Betty Amann), Bobbie (Patti McCarty), Mimi (Marian Colby) and Christine (Tala Birell) announcing, "get up, the Southern Queen is here". Riding in a launch from the ship is an inspector from the "Criminal Investigation Bureau" who compares a fingerprint card with a photograph of "Betty Nelson" to one with a photo of a somewhat older "Marge Williams", shows it to the commissioner (unbilled C. Montague Shaw) and tells him, "we'll go there tonight". Marge, surrounded by eight hostesses, is asked by one, "what can we do to please him?" and answers, "he doesn't want to be pleased, he's looking for an excuse to close us up". As the sarong-clad girls leave, one of them, Diane (Rita Quigley) tells Marge, "oh, I suppose it's silly of me but I feel so self-conscious in this costume" and Marge responds, "I know how it is when your modesty's taking a beating, don't let it get you down".

La jolie danseuse Saira a jeté un œil sur le beau Caucasien au grand dam de son oncle Chamil, un chef de la population locale. Il injurie Hadji Murad, mais avant que les deux hommes en viennent aux mains, le village est envahi par des soldats russes. Beaucoup d'hommes et de femmes sont enlevés par les envahisseurs, y compris Saira. Chamil exhorte les siens de combattre les Russes.

Hadji Murad et ses cavaliers surprennent l'ennemi lors de la chute d'un rocher et font beaucoup de prisonniers. Quand Murad revient au village avec ses hommes, il qualifie Chamil de traître parce qu'il les a tués sur place.
